Hi, peanut gallery here: Unless there is a normalised version of that graph, it will be not very useful, as the absolute values cannot be compared between categories. Also, its not fair to make comparisons akin to: "1 in 3 people thought apple was aweome, but 2 in 3 people thought orange was OK." 46.115.17.33 (talk) 17:14, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed - thanks. Szhang (WMF) (talk) 18:17, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

On my monitor the words on the image(when zoomed in) are not readable without a magnifying glass. Regards, Sun Creator^(talk) 12:43, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've uploaded a higher resolution graph - I hope this helps. Steven Zhang ^{Help resolve disputes!} 05:22, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I can't agree anymore that the biggest problem with resolving disputes is that I have no idea where to go. If I had a dispute I would've clicked around on blue links for "are you in the right place", if not here's five other places you might want to check out. Ugh.

Well, yes, but we need to think from the perspective of someone that's not too familiar with the system. Steven Zhang ^{Help resolve disputes!} 00:57, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I just had a great outcome that solved all my problems, so it works at least some of the time. MathewTownsend (talk) 00:37, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Those who "win" a dispute tend to rate the resolution process more favorably than those who lose. It is extremely difficult for most people to separate their opinion of the quality of a process from their opinion of the result.—Finell 21:10, 7 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
